A Review on Pharmaceuticals Affect the Environment and Strategies to Minimise Pharmaceutical Pollutipon

Abstract Due to the widespread use of pharmaceuticals in human and veterinary medicine and their subsequent release into various environmental compartments, pharmaceutical contamination has emerged as a growing environmental concern. Manufacturing pharmaceuticals, human and animal excrement, improper disposal of unused medications, and aquaculture activities are major sources. These contaminants enter the environment through the discharge of wastewater, infiltration of soil and groundwater, contamination of surface water, and emissions into the air. Pharmaceuticals remain in the body and undergo physical, chemical, and biological transformations after they are released, affecting their mobility, bioavailability, and impact on the environment. Antimicrobial resistance, endocrine disruption, soil degradation, biodiversity loss, and global warming are just a few of the potential dangers posed by pharmaceutical residues that have been found in air, surface water, groundwater, and soil. Chronic contamination results from conventional wastewater treatment systems' inability to completely remove contaminants. Effective strategies like advanced treatment technologies, regulatory control, secure disposal methods, public awareness, and sustainable pharmacy approaches are necessary to address these issues. Strengthened frameworks for risk assessment and monitoring will be crucial to reducing pharmaceutical pollution and safeguarding human and environmental health.
Keywords Pharmaceutical contamination, manufacturing, antimicrobial resistance, endocrine disruption, biodiversity, and monitoring.
